Cartoonist and podcaster Douglas Arthur has opened a can of worms and found inside of it… ME! The mother of all nightcrawlers! Listen as we discuss scandalous comics and comic book scandals on his Assault Of The 2-Headed Space Mules! podcast!
I will be appearing (hopefully fully clothed) at the Buffalo Comicon theis weekend, September 15 and 16! Deets here!
Adorably bare French nature girl Pyrénée with her suspiciously adorable bear.
Own this art! Pen & ink-$100.00 (plus shipping). E-mail me with your inquiries!
Jos? Youngs and Miguel Torres have seen he future, and it is ME!
(Well, it is Weapon Brown, actually, which is why they have featured that, and by extension yours truly, on the latest installment of their wonderlicious Bam! Smack! Pow! podcast, which this week is all about post-apocalyptic dystopias!)
Listen to my voice–the voice that was made for print!– as they interview me about all my projects past and future!
I have just been informed that I conducted an interview with Mike and Chris of Fortress of Comic News. I don’t know what drugs I was on when I did this (apparently, it was the kind that makes you say “um” a lot), but I think I did pretty well for a guy who probably thought he was talking to a couple of zucchini.
A: “Aaugh!” And if you want to hear an even more obnoxious noise, listen to my howling goddamn cat as it ruins the interview I did with Nat Gertler for his Aaugh! podcast. Nat’s program is dedicated to all things Peanuts… and it took until NOW for him to have me on his show to discuss Weapon Brown?? One of us isn’t managing their career right!
How many goddamn times is this art by Max Dunbar going to pop up in an article about ME? DUNNNBARRRRRRR!!!!
Wouldja look at this? I’m the toast of the town again! Let’s see who’s buttering me up this week!
First, It’s Wayne Hall, who heroes under the name “Major Spoiler”. Wayne recently invited me down to his awkwardly-named “Spoiler Cave” for a touch of podcastery. Have a listen to his professional, radio quality voice, and then cringe as you compare it to my congested, half-panicked babbling as we talk about Weapon Brown and my other upcoming projects.
And then, behold! I have finally reached the apex of my career by being added to a listicle at Cracked.com! Jason Iannone has delivered unto me some backhanded flattery by declaring Weapon Brown to be amongst the “6 Pieces Of Fan Art That Prove We’re Doomed”. (He obviously has not heard of Shadman).
Not too shabby for a guy who keeps waking up at 1:30 in the afternoon! Now let’s see…. should I use this exposure as incentive to bust my hump getting my comic books finsihed, or spend the next five days working on an editorial demolishing some low-level Trump flack who just got booted from the White House? What will Jason choooooose?
Here are the pencils for the next issue of Peek. Love the 80s? Love to hate the 80s? Hoo-boy, are you going to be pleased!
Jordan Peterson’s, the far right’s savior du jour, loses his shit, but why does he have shit to lose in the first place? Find out in my latest hot take!
And hey, look who’s the topic of the conversation again? It’s me!! This time its The Brotherhood of Evil Geeks who realized how important I am!
In the words of Futurama’s needy lobster: “Hooray! People are paying attention to me!”
Even more fan art!
..aand a little coverage from Bleeding Cool!
Damn I’m good!
He’s going in for the kiss.
It was rough going for a while, and I’ll admit that I did have a concession speech prepared.. but what do you know? Sometimes your get lucky! And no one is luckier than a guy who has fans like mine!
So yes indeed, my Kickstarter made it’s goal and then some! The last-minute enthusiasm was beyond my greatest dreams! (Okay, not beyond the dream where I’m flying naked over a land of birthday parties while shooting my enemies with blue eye lasers… but still, pretty awesome!) This means that the Weapon Brown graphic novel will soon be back in stock, and that an all new Weapon Brown comic book featuring tales of your favorite Weapon Brown characters is on its way!
Beyond that, the success of this Kickstarter is greasing the skids for all my upcoming projects, which will all benefit from my having Weapon Brown to anchor my publishing agenda. So if you enjoy Peek, Deep Fried and all the rest, good news! Everyone wins!
Thank you to all who pledged to my campaign, spread the word, or who just reads my work! Occasionally, as a creator, I have to pass the hat through the audience, and you guys were anything but stingy! This one’s for you!
The final week of the Aftershock Kickstarter is here! If you are reading this, you know what to do! Pledge! Then… take up your machetes and kill my enemies! (But pledge first, absolutely!)
Also, I am now on Instagram and posting like a hung, horny teenager who just learned how to share his dick pix! (Yes, that IS how I think of my comics!) Follow me @death_ray_graphics for stuff you’ve never seen before!
Run, don’t walk (no wait: jog!) to your local newsstand, and pay the scrappy kid in the newsboy cap a shiny ha’penny to pick up the latest issue of Mad magazine, which has one of my cartoons right in the front section! Take a peek! (I have pixelated most of the punchline so that you have still have a reason to rush out and buy the magazine!
The massacre at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School is tragic, yes, but it’s also magic!
After the flu tried AND FAILED to kill me last week, delaying the launch of my Kickstarter, I rallied! I can now report that the Weapon Brown: Aftershock Kickstarter, which has been up and running all week, is doing just dandy!
As I write this I am closing in on 100 backers and nearing 25% of my goal. I’m feeling confident enough to even be thinking about the next item on my agenda in this Year of Death Ray Graphics, which is the second issue of Peek! But first, I guess I ought to reacquaint the public with that project.
Beginning next week, I will start putting out the entirety of Peek the First as a daily strip, running Monday through Friday, until the whole mess has been shared. There will be lots of great random humor for you to enjoy, and it will all lead up to the complete “Take Me To Work Day” Clarissa story that so many of you have been jonesin’ to read on this site!
(I have also, at last, put Peek the First up for sale in my store as a digital edition. Why read it for free when you can pay me for it??)
In the meantime I have begun working in earnest on the new material for Peek the Second, which I hope to have out in comic book form this summer. And you will soon be able to purchase the second issue of The Hero’s Journey as well. That one’s almost ready to come out of the oven!
There are just so many ways for you to give me your money that I can’t believe you have any left! GIMMEE!!
Friends, Romans, countrymen… all are falling victim to the flu that is ravaging our nation, and I am no exception! And so, the Kickstarter I planned to launch this week to fund the reprint of Weapon Brown must be put off one week while I let the mysterious elixir known as Nyquil fight the battle I am too weak to fight on my own.
So, tune in next Monday for the launch! And here is a glimpse of some of the glory that awaits you when you do!
The Year of Death Ray Graphics (that’s what the Chinese are calling 2018, at least) is underway! If you did not know that, then I curse the mainstream media for distracting you with nonsense like that “Nunes Memo” shit. Damn you, Nunes!
But it’s true! It’s my year and you’re just living in it! And the first stage of my endless 2018 product launches is the upcoming Kickstarter to fund a new run of Weapon Brown! Yes, my hated fans have bought up all of my Weapon Brown graphic novels, forcing me to run a Kickstarter to buy more! This is capitalism, folks! An endless cycle of never-enough-for-anyone!
The campaign launches Monday, February 12th, and is not only designed to put Weapon Brown back into print, but to fund a brand NEW Weapon Brown product as well! That comic book will be called Weapon Brown: Aftershock, and it will be a 48-page epilogue to the Chuck’s journey, telling tales out if school about your favorite round-headed sonofabitch. I’ ve had this idea on my mind for a while, so finger’s crossed!
I will have more details and promo art to share soon, but in the meantime, get excited! And if you feel like adding your name to my mailing list (right below the weekly), you may receive a special goody right before the campaign launches, just to prove that I love you (or don’t love you, as my goodies ultimately reveal. Hey, I was raised by emotionally distant hobo parents! What do you expect from me??)
…But guess what comic book is number one on this list? (In the “not hated” category, that is. Jeez, you think I’m bragging about being hated? My self-esteem is low, but not “Baked Alaska” low!)
